Student project from Siemens

Hi EE Majors,

Please read the email below.

We have an exciting challenge from Siemens up on MindSumo and they would love to see your students solve it!

MindSumo is a platform that provides real company projects for students to help them develop professional skills and valuable experiences for resumes. We have worked with over 350 companies in the past and have over 300,000 students in our community.

Siemens - How can we better control mass air flow in rotating machinery?

These challenges are great for students who want to apply skills they learnt during their classes to solve projects for actual companies. Great to work on during their weekend, after school, during breaks and even as a class project. Each of these challenges also award the top performers with cash prizes.

Would you please forward my note to students and professors you think might be interested in such projects?

Feel free to reach out to me (isha@mindsumo.com) if you or your students have any questions. Hope to see many of your students participate!

Thank you,

Isha Punjabi | University Relations | MindSumo Inc. | www.mindsumo.com
